  • the present utility model relates to a construction safety technology.
  • the present utility model relates to a connecting member used in combination with the safety film for a hidden frame supported glass curtain wall.
  • Glass curtain walls are widely used in modern buildings wherein the glass is generally hollow and toughened. Toughened glass has a spontaneous breaking rate of 3% - a long time unsolved problem in the glass industry. Therefore, the many buildings with glass curtain walls in cities are in a sense like time bombs suspended above the heads of those below. Debris from spontaneously breaking glass in such cases will fall down and may result in serious injury.
  • the present utility model provides a connecting member used in combination with a safety film, which is adapted to outdoor environments.
  • the connecting member is used, the whole exterior glass piece with the safety film adhered thereto would not fall down, and meanwhile, the effect of the connecting member on the appearance of the hidden frame supported glass curtain wall will be minimized.
  • a connecting member used in combination with a safety film for a hidden frame supported glass curtain wall comprises a connecting bridge plate, an adhesive layer and a release paper, wherein the adhesive layer is disposed on a surface of the connecting bridge plate and comprised of two portions spaced apart from each other; and the release paper covers the surfaces of the two portions of the adhesive layer.
  • two or more reinforcing ribs are disposed on a surface of the connecting bridge plate which is opposite the surface having the adhesive layer disposed thereon.
  • the connecting bridge plate is in a straight stripe shape.
  • the aluminum alloy strip is bent 90 degrees facing the adhesive layer side at a location between the two portions of the adhesive layer.
  • the aluminum alloy strip is bent 90 degrees facing a side which is opposite to the adhesive layer side at a location between the two portions of the adhesive layer.
  • the connecting member when the glass is broken due to spontaneous breakage, the connecting member can bear the weight of the glass and prevent the whole glass piece from falling down, and when subjected to wind pressure of 3.5 kPa, the connecting member would not be blown down. As such, the safety of the exterior glass with a film adhered thereto can be guaranteed, while the effect on the appearance of the hidden frame supported curtain wall is minimized.
  • a connecting member used in combination with a safety film for a hidden frame supported glass curtain wall comprises a connecting bridge plate, an adhesive layer and a release paper, wherein the adhesive layer is disposed on a surface of the connecting bridge plate and comprised of two portions spaced apart from each other, and the release paper covers the surfaces of the two portions of the adhesive layer.

  • the connecting bridge plate 1 is in a straight stripe shape.
  • the surface of the connecting bridge plate 1 can be treated and has a respective color and material in accordance with the requirements of the architect.
  • the shape of the connecting bridge plate can also be customized depending on the requirements of the building.
  • the connecting bridge plate may be formed of a material which has a structural strength and is outside atmosphere resistant, such as stainless steel, hard rubber, or aluminum alloy.
  • Aluminum alloy is the most preferred material for the connecting bridge plate, and it is widely used in glass curtain wall construction structures as it is easy to machine, flexible to use, and retains a long service life.
  • a VHB adhesive tape from 3M or other like materials may be used by adhering the same to the surface of the aluminum alloy profile.
  • the other side of the adhesive is adhered to the safety film.
  • the release paper 3 is a release paper matched with the adhesive layer 2. In use, the release paper 3 is removed for attaching the adhesive layer to the surface of the safety film.
  • the connecting member according to the present utility model comprises a connecting bridge plate 1, an adhesive layer 2 and a release paper 3, wherein the adhesive layer 2 is disposed on a surface of the connecting bridge plate 1 and comprised of two portions 2-1, 2-2 spaced apart from each other; and the release paper 3 covers the surfaces of the two portions of the adhesive layer 2.
  • the connecting bridge plate 1 is in a straight stripe shape and two reinforcing ribs 4-1 are disposed on the surface of the connecting bridge plate which is opposite to the surface having the adhesive layer disposed thereon.
  • the number of the reinforcing ribs may be 2, or more than 2.
  • the reinforcing ribs are formed of the same material as the connecting bridge plate and integral with the same. The size and location of the reinforcing ribs 4 may be customized depending on the requirements of the construction.
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the connecting member (i.e. the connecting member used at the Yin corners of a glass curtain wall).
  • the connecting member according to the present utility model comprises a connecting bridge plate 1, an adhesive layer 2 and a release paper 3, wherein the adhesive layer 2 is disposed on a surface of the connecting bridge plate 1 and comprised of two portions 2-1, 2-2 spaced apart from each other; and the release paper 3 covers the surfaces of the two portions of the adhesive layer 2.

  • the surface of the glass plate of the curtain wall having the safety film adhered thereto is first cleaned. After the surface is dry, the release paper of the adhesive layer is removed, and then the portions 2-1 and 2-2 are respectively adhered to two adjacent curtain wall glass plates having safety films adhered thereto.
  • the strength of the adhesive layer is up to its full extent, if broken, the whole piece of the glass can be prevented from falling down and can bear wind pressure of 3.5 kPa.
  • the debris would be adhered to the safety film, while the safety film would be connected to the adjacent glasses and films via the connecting member thereby preventing the whole piece of the broken glass with the safety film from falling down.
  • the actual bond area is far greater than the bond area required for bearing the static load, which indicates that the structure of the connecting member satisfies the safety requirements with respect to the static load
  • Wind load is a dynamic load.
  • the dynamic load-bearing capability of 3M VHB adhesive tape is 83 kPa.
  • the maximal value of the wind load exerted on each glass plate will be 83 ⁇ a ⁇ b.
  • the exterior force exerted on the unit length connecting member can be simplified as 83 ⁇ a ⁇ b / (2a + 2b).
  • the wind load is 3,500 Pa and the size of the glass is 3 m ⁇ 1.2 m
  • the bonding force provided by the adhesive tape is greater than the load generated by the wind pressure. Accordingly, the structure of the connecting member satisfies the wind pressure safety requirements.
